The goal of the Ku Klux Klan during Reconstruction was to undermine the policies of the Republican state governments and force the Democratic Party to give up control of state governments. They aimed to maintain control and power for white supremacists in the South and prevent the political and social progress of African Americans. The Klan used violence, intimidation, and terrorism to suppress African American voting rights and political participation, ultimately seeking to maintain white supremacy and racial segregation. Therefore, none of the other goals mentioned in the response is accurate.
